3 Quick Tips to Start Manifesting Like A Pro

by Yee Shun-Jian on January 12th, 2009

Do you remember that first spark of hope you felt when you watched The Secret? I clearly remember the desire that filled my heart, knowing that – Yes, I can make my dreams come true – FINALLY!

But how many of you soon saw that hope dwindle into frustration? How many of you (and be honest now) started muttering things like:

– “It seems to work for other people, but I just can’t get it right.”

– “I’m frustrated that sometimes I can get it to work, but sometimes I can’t. What’s the trick?”

– “Why am I having so much trouble?”

– “I think the universe is against me.”

– “I’m trying very, VERY hard but still nothing is happening!”

Don’t worry, you’re not alone. About 97% of people also couldn’t make the Law of Attractionwork for them the first time round. Think about it, just like anything else, you have to practice many times before you see success. A child doesn’t learn to walk without falling over a couple of times, right?

But in practice, everything is easier said and done. When you’re frustrated, it’s hard to stay positive. And it’s especially harder to stay positive when the evidence all around you is screams negativity like the unstable economy or senseless acts of violence such as those recently seen in Mumbai.

And do you know what happens when you fail to stay positive? That’s right – you start attracting negative things in to your life.

So how can you make the Law of Attractionwork for you – without getting frustrated? How do those who successfully implement the Law of Attraction do it with such confidence and finesse?

Well, here’s three quick tips so you will never feel frustrated or tired of begging from the universe, because you know how to start manifesting like a pro.

1. Allow Yourself To Receive

Just like a lost child who approaches a police officer and asks, “Excuse me Sir, can you tell me how to go to the post office? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you?” Well, if the child goes on and on asking, the police officer can’t even give an answer, right?

Well, it’s the same thing with your mind. If the only thing your mind is doing is transmit, transmit, transmit, the universe — which is trying to respond — can’t give you a single thing because you’re not allowing yourself to receive!

So, have the confidence in yourself and stop exhausting yourself by running around person to person begging for riches, and then wondering why nobody is dropping a penny in your cup (Hint: It’s because you’re running away too fast for them before they can even reach for their wallets).

Just think of your desires and leave it out there, go away, and trust that your cup will be filled with gold coins (or whatever it is you asked for) when the time is right.

2. Be Patient With Yourself

Receiving takes time.

Sadly, many people give up just a couple of steps before the finish line because they’ve decided that if it’s not working by now, it’s never going to work at all. Worse still are those who throw in more and more energy because they think that with more resources, the results will come faster.

This is like expecting 9 mothers to conceive and deliver a baby in 1 month. You also can’t bake cookies in half the time by doubling the temperature. You’ll incinerate those cookies to ashes!

In simple terms: Everything in this world has a natural development time, and this fact will not change no matter what resources you throw at it.

So relax and be patient. Remember that you too, as part of the universe, are also governed by the laws of the universe, and you cannot change the natural development time.

If you remember this, you will less likely work yourself up into frustration, or worse, push yourself into a downward spiral of negativity.

3. Support and Educate Yourself

Like the child who is learning how to walk, you need support. You also need guidance on how to do it, and also the role models to look up to.

Many people give up because they think that “The Secret” is the “be all and end all” solution. Well, it’s NOT. “The Secret” is just a small portion. It was never intended, and has never been, the whole answer.

Coming to the conclusion that the Law of Attraction doesn’t work when all you ever did to educate yourself was watch “The Secret” 19 times (without looking at changing the habits of other areas of your life) is like coming to the conclusion that exercising is not an effective way to lose weight because all you did is run on the treadmill for 2 hours a day (but you’re still stuffing yourself with fried foods and cheesecakes).

So seek and be hungry for new knowledge. Also, make an effort to be amongst people or communities where you can support each other, learn from each other and also share new knowledge that you have found.

While the Law of Attractionis not an overnight delivery service, it will indeed deliver, if you do your part too!

I’m also a great believer in the law of attraction and like you said in your post I believe that at times I try too hard!

But it has helped me in a number of ways and for that I am very grateful! I just received some help with paying my heating bill and I believe – in fact I know – that it was the law of attraction at work!

If a thing is very common and easy to get, we say it is ‘a dime a dozen.’ And that is exactly what talent is.

Let me explain.

In a recent seminar I wrote at the bottom of my white board, in small writing, ‘talent’. And next to it I wrote the word ‘low’. I then proceeded to write in large letters at the top of the board the word ‘high’. And then beside that word started to write what I felt were much more important qualities in a life. Words such as: positive in speech and action, a ‘can do’ spirit, patient, attends to detail, teachable, people skills, servant, excellence, never having own agenda, willing to work for a common goal, non-offensive, co-operative, understanding, willing to learn, does what is asked to do, keeps their word, character, honesty and integrity.

I then went on to explain for the next hour why, as an employer, I placed all those qualities far above talent. And particularly as I franchise my business – I am not going to be looking so much for talent first and foremost, but will in fact be looking for far higher qualities in my applicants.

It is true they do work, but it also takes work to make things happen. What I mean by work is the work of making yourself let go and let the universe guide you. We are so used to either controlling everything in our lives or letting life take us along like a tumbleweed without purpose.
Definitely meditation helps you find the inner peace needed to trust that the universe will deliver on your desires.
Thanks for the tips…
